New or a restored original?
The following is from a pilot to some non-aviators. The pilot has played one-too-many practical jokes in his life.
*************************************************************************************************************************
I'll give all of you a tip that comes from the 40-plus years of my aviation experience. We use it for the aircraft but it can be used on your cars.
I don't use ordinary soap and water to wash my car. I use good old prop-wash. You won't find this in any auto parts stores or any of the big box stores like Walmart. You can only purchase it at your local airport.
Just drive out to any small airport and walk in the Fixed Base Operations (FBO) office and ask for some prop-wash. They will know what your talking about.
Don't act like you're a non-pilot as this stuff is not sold to the general public. Act like you are a pilot and know what you're talking about. To look like an aviator you need to approach the receptionist with a cocky-devil-may-care attitude. If you have a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses be sure to wear them even if it's dark outside.
If the receptionist is really attractive be sure to address her as "Baby." All real pilots address the girls at the airports as "Baby."
If you want to save money, go to the FBOs at the larger airports. Just walk in the front door and ask "Baby" for a 5 gallon container of prop-wash. That sounds like a lot to get for just one vehicle but you will save money by purchasing a large amount. If it comes in a concentrated form just ask for a one gallon can. Most concentrated brands of prop-wash recommend you dilute it in water with a 10-to-1 mix. For your car you only need to dilute it 40-to-1.
If you really want to save a lot of money call up Sporty's pilot shop at 1-800-776-7897.
It's not available on-line. You can only order it over the phone. If the sales representative tells you that Haz-Mat charges apply; don't believe them. They don't know what they are talking about. Tell them you want to talk with someone else to order the prop-wash.
Here's another tip. Rather than going to the lawn & garden store, you can use flight-line instead of the standard weed-eater line. So while you are getting some prop-wash ask for a spool of flight-line. If they try to sell you the 100 foot spool don't buy it. A little goes a long way because it's tougher than the standard weed-eater line. A 10 foot spool of flight line is all you will ever need for your weed-eater.
Because it's marked "for aircraft use only," they will charge you an arm and a leg for it. Don't let that scare you away from using it for your weed-eater as you pay ten times more over a ten year period if you keep purchasing the standard weed-eater line at the lawn & garden store.
If you have a little time while you're at the airport and are hungry, most restaurants on the field have a special menu for the air crews. You won't need to order off the air crew menu. Just walk in the restaurant with the same cocky-devil-may-care attitude while wearing those sparkly Ray-Bans and tell the waitress, "I'll just have the 'high-speed-buffet' today." Be sure to address her as "baby."
Gotta get a dump truck or something else for yourself. He's going to need someone to get in the dirt and play with him.

Next to the Superposed the A5 is my favorite shotgun. Couldn't count the number of quail I harvested with my Light 12. Just installed rebuild kits in my friends FN Light 12 and 3" magnum.
